Config and 1024/4096

[CODY614 6]

So I was reading.... http://forum.avsim.net/topic/343251-texture-max-load-editor/page__pid__2056019#entry2056019 My question is, How do you make 4096 stay in the cfg file without defaulting back?

never ever go to the graphics option inside fsx again ... otherwise you have to edit it again

Iv'e found it useful to create a shortcut to fsx.cfg on my desktop. That way if I ever do change anything it's a lot easier going there & changing it back to 4096.

Wonderful...But he even states..."and change location (scenery) the 4069 will default back to 1024."I never noticed FSX doing this till now. MrKen...Good idea on the shortcut!

I set everything I need in the setup and after that I edit the fsx.cfg and change it to 4096 ...Since I have everything I need set up I don't need to edit the cfg again since I never access the setup again ...Thats what i meant

Wow...see what I get for asking... ....Alrighty then...I never would have thought. P.L., for now I'll just do like you said...Brandon, that link is awesome and I like the idea of multiple .cfg's sure would make it easier. Will make for good reading. Thanks guys!

Yeah, us REX users are pretty familiar with the whole 1024/4096 thing. It is second nature by now. Also a good way to check different graphics things like buffer pools, highmemfix and other cfg tweaks while underway. Also a good way to see the effect of 1024 versus 4096.

This setting really pertains to scenery. It doesn't seem to have any effect on aircraft texturing.
